    Battery Racks
    SBS offers seismic and standard battery racks. SBS produces a battery rack for every brand and type of battery. Whether C&D, Dynasty, GNB, East Penn, Exide, Enersys, Alcad, Saft, Power Battery or other, SBS has a rack assembly that will save you valuable floor space and allow for easy installation and maintenance. Our battery racks accommodate sealed VRLA, flooded cell as well as NiCad batteries up to four tier with Seismic Zone 4 certification. All rack systems are enamel painted and epoxy coated. Shelf stringers are topped with black polyethylene for additional acid resistance and lower friction for installation ease. The complete battery rack system is modular making it scalable, expandable and movable.We also offer the SBS EconoPan spill containment consisting of interlocking HDPE pans and flame-retardant acid absorbing/neutralizing pillows as well traditional berm & liner containment..

     

    Custom Battery Cabinets/Enclosures and Relay Racks
    SBS can fabricate specialized enclosures that accommodate a variety of feature sets that fulfill your requirements.

     

    SBS Cool Cell/Enclosures®
    Cool Cell® passive temperature regulating enclosures offer reliable, cost-effective protection from summer heat and winter freezing for batteries. Cool Cell® protects batteries from destructive temperature extremes in the harshest climates. It doubles and triples battery life in hot weather, and ensures at least 80% capacity in the cold. Cool Cells® are offered in many standard sizes. They can be constructed with batteries, battery/charger combinations, and even DC distribution panels. Batteries can be installed on pull-out drawers or fixed shelves.
